Posted April 18, 201411 yr i'm trying to make a custom rendered block but when i place the block it shows up invisible and i have no idea whats wrong with the code so please help the block class package com.electric.craft.block;

April 18, 201411 yr I hope you know - if getRenderType() returns -1, it will render as BlockSign. getRenderType() - render types http://pastebin.com/kp4v1uyz - K, let's get on topic (well more on topic) - Have you registered your block - with your render stuff?
April 18, 201411 yr have you registered it in your proxy? ClientRegistry.bindTileEntitySpecialRenderer(TileEntityYOURTILEENTITY.class, new TileEntityYOURTILEENTITYRender());
April 18, 201411 yr Hi -1 means "don't render anything" RenderBlocks:: /** * Renders the block at the given coordinates using the block's rendering type */ public boolean renderBlockByRenderType(Block par1Block, int par2, int par3, int par4) { int l = par1Block.getRenderType(); if (l == -1) { return false; } That's fine because you want your TileEntitySpecialRenderer to do the rendering, not the block. You're probably not registering the TileEntity or the Special Renderer properly. I would suggest you put a few breakpoints in your code (or System.out.println) to see which bits are being called properly, and which bits aren't - eg the constructor, the calls to ClientRegistry, the renderer, etc. That will help you narrow it down. -TGG
April 19, 201411 yr Author okay i found out the methods that register the tile entity and bind the tile entity to the render were not being called and now i fixed that but the block is still invisable
April 19, 201411 yr Author That's fine because you want your TileEntitySpecialRenderer to do the rendering, not the block.
April 20, 201411 yr Hi If you put a breakpoint in this method: public void renderTileEntityAt(TileEntity tileEntity, double x, double y, double z, float scale) { does it ever get called? If not; you could try (1) creating a flat world (2) putting your TileEntity into it, then (3) putting breakpoints into the vanilla code TileEntityRendererDispatcher: /** * Render this TileEntity at a given set of coordinates */ public void renderTileEntityAt(TileEntity p_147549_1_, double p_147549_2_, double p_147549_4_, double p_147549_6_, float p_147549_8_) { TileEntitySpecialRenderer tileentityspecialrenderer = this.getSpecialRenderer(p_147549_1_); and /** * Render this TileEntity at its current position from the player */ public void renderTileEntity(TileEntity p_147544_1_, float p_147544_2_) { if (p_147544_1_.getDistanceFrom(this.field_147560_j, this.field_147561_k, this.field_147558_l) < p_147544_1_.getMaxRenderDistanceSquared()) and RenderGlobal::renderEntities this.theWorld.theProfiler.endStartSection("blockentities"); RenderHelper.enableStandardItemLighting(); for (i = 0; i < this.tileEntities.size(); ++i) { TileEntity tile = (TileEntity)this.tileEntities.get(i); if (tile.shouldRenderInPass(pass) && p_147589_2_.isBoundingBoxInFrustum(tile.getRenderBoundingBox())) { TileEntityRendererDispatcher.instance.renderTileEntity(tile, p_147589_3_); } } This should help you narrow down whether (1) your TileEntity is never being created, or (2) your TileEntity exists, but the renderer is incorrectly registered, or (3) your model rendering is being called but is invisible. -TGG
April 20, 201411 yr Author i put a break point on that method and debugged it and when i placed the block the game froze
January 30, 201510 yr You're calling a method model.renderModel(float) but in your definition of that method, you have no rendering code. That's why your model isn't rendering in-game.
